Passivhaus is a challenging international energy and comfort standard, with a uniquely hands-on process of delivery. In many ways it is a formalisation of Max Fordham's approach to building design that has been applied over the past 50 years.

Passivhaus has been shown to deliver buildings with a smaller performance gap between design and reality. It requires a strong buy-in from the whole design team, and environmental engineering is no exception. Having worked on some of the largest and tallest Passivhaus projects in the UK, Max Fordham are comfortable delivering Passivhaus at any scale.

We are familiar with the process and can offer optimised M&E solutions rapidly. We are also experienced in providing the Passivhaus design/planning service and have a team of certified Passivhaus Consultants and Designers.
